[Comprehensive] The Hundred Stories of Qingxingdeng

Chapter 93

Ten years is enough time for many things to happen.

Since the people on this continent can remember, the shadows that have been hanging over their heads have always been monsters that prey on humans.

In front of demons, human beings appear so weak, like rags that can be easily torn.It's not that no one has thought about rebelling, but there is simply no way.

The bloody and effortless killing by monsters scares the human beings.In fact, it is true, human beings are so powerless in front of monsters, the only thing they can pray for is to hope that monsters will not appear by their side.

But in these ten years, many things have happened quietly, among which the most mysterious but eye-catching is that a belief organization named Fengshen quietly appeared.

"Is there really such an organization as Fengshen?" A big man sitting in the tavern asked softly, holding the ale in his hand tightly, his eyes fixed on the girl in front of him, with hopeful emotions in his eyes.

With blond hair, green eyes, and several delicate faces, Denisa is undoubtedly an extremely beautiful girl. Even if she is wearing a black robe to completely cover her body, her charm will not be lost at all.

In her hand, she was holding a round but invisible stone, engraved with pattern-like patterns on it, and she gently twisted her fingertips, and the stone moved back and forth freely between her fingertips.

She nodded slightly, with a beautiful and comfortable smile on her face. Even if the oily man in front of her suddenly approached her, and the smell of sweat from a busy day filled her nose, she didn't frown, "Of course there are." " Denisa tilted her head slightly, and her green eyes swept over the big men in the tavern looking at her, "If there is no one, how can the letter received by the city lord be explained?"

Denisa's words made the already silent tavern even more dead silent.

Although human beings in this world are persecuted by demons, and it is difficult to maintain their own food and clothing, the people gathered together are still divided into three or six classes, nobles and commoners.Places with a lot of people are also more prosperous, with "looking" more powerful troops that can resist aggression and persecution.

A place with many people is naturally more prosperous than a place with few people. It is normal for a city to have some pubs.

And a place like a tavern, as long as it's time for people to rest, is always very lively.But today is different, all the people who came here were not in the mood to drink and laugh, because their city lord received a letter.

It is normal for the city lord to receive letters. After all, people in the city lord's mansion deliver these things back and forth every day.Most of these letters cover what happened in the villages and towns under the city lord's record and things that need to be dealt with, and there may be many invitation letters from other nobles-these are extremely common things.

But the reason why today's letter is known all over the city is precisely because it is unusual.

It is a letter from the "Fengshen" organization.

The exact time when the Fengshen organization appeared, most people have no way to say clearly.It seems that without knowing it, I heard that there is such an organization, and there are rumors about this organization in the market.

When people knew that this organization turned out to be a religious organization, they felt extremely ridiculous about it, and not many people believed it.Because... people on this big road don't believe in gods.

If there are gods, how can people be so persecuted by demons?

When there is room for redemption, even if it looks bad, people are willing to hypnotize themselves into believing something that sounds ridiculous, or relying on gods that don't really exist.But the monsters that have been rampant on this continent for many years have already used mountains of corpses and seas of blood to let people know how terrifying they are, how fragile human beings are, and that illusory gods can't do anything.

Such an extremely "realistic" idea makes people not believe in the existence of gods, although... such things as belief will still appear in the hearts of some people who still have fantasies, such as the legend of the "Twin Goddesses".

The legend about the Twin Goddesses has been circulated on the mainland since a long time ago, but the myths or stories handed down about them have become blurred with the passage of time, falling into the cracks of time.Even if people will mention a few words from time to time, there are not many people who really believe that they are really gods and can protect human beings.

Therefore, when people knew that the "Fengshen" organization actually believed in a god named Yimulian, and this god was also the god in charge of the wind, they took it as a story.

Life on weekdays is already so difficult, and it is good to have some small adjustments occasionally.

Of course, this is only the beginning.

Fengshen, an organization, has always been very low-key. People in this organization don't preach teachings everywhere, and don't show their presence in front of others.

But when some important things happen, people can always find some information related to the Fengshen organization after digging through the cocoons.One thing that most ordinary people know is that many villages and towns that have been slaughtered by monsters have received letters from the Fengshen organization before the monsters appeared.

The letters of the Fengshen organization are really different.

Letters are now delivered on parchment.This is a consumption that only nobles can afford. If ordinary official documents are not important events, parchment is also unusable.

The Fengshen organization is different, their letters are all extremely thin paper.

Thin, clean, tidy, without any peculiar smell, does not require special maintenance, and can be stored for a longer period of time.

Before they really saw such a thing as "paper", most people felt incredible when they heard about it. Parchment is parchment. What is paper?How can it sound so good?

It must be that the people from the Fengshen organization are secretly beautifying themselves, even the parchment paper on which they deliver letters have been removed from the word "parchment", and then beautified a lot.

But something like this happened more than once.

Even if ordinary civilians don't know much about it and just treat it as rumors, those nobles who are more well-informed know many things that others don't.

For example, they have actually seen this piece of paper.

Not all the villages and towns that received the letters from the Fengshen organization were destroyed by the demons, and some people in the villages and towns survived—this is what people care about.

Whenever a monster appears, it is very easy for a powerful monster to destroy a city.However, among the villages that the monsters passed by, some villages and towns were not destroyed, and there were very few casualties, or even no people inside.

How unbelievable this seems to people who know the truth of this matter.

Many, many nobles want to contact people from the Fengshen organization, but the Fengshen organization is always silent, making it hard to find.

The lord of Filo City, where Denisa is now, is different from other nobles. He is a mediocre person who doesn't care about the affairs of the Fengshen organization.

In his opinion, even if the Fengshen organization is very powerful, even if he did not die at the hands of the demon, he would have died for other reasons, and no one knew whether he would be able to live safely until the next moment.

Therefore, the purpose of the city lord of Philo City is to muddle along, to live happily and unexamined every day.

Although he didn't care about the affairs of the Fengshen organization, he still knew something about it. He never thought that he would receive such a letter, but this letter came to him.

The moment he saw the letter, the city lord of Filo fainted.

Immediately afterwards, I went all the way to find a doctor with great fanfare.

The voice of the housekeeper in the City Lord's Mansion could be heard throughout the entire city.

Even though the city lord tried his best to conceal this matter after waking up, the news of the Fengshen organization's letter was still spread throughout the city.

Although most ordinary people just regard the existence of the Fengshen organization as a "legend" or "story", when this "story" really appeared around them, many people also became frightened and worried.

after all……

No one can say anything about monsters.

The monster is too close to them, so close that every day when they sleep peacefully, they can smell the sweet smell of blood in their nostrils.

When all these rumors are put together, it makes people feel uneasy.

In the city right now, people are really panicking.Such a lively bar has also become deserted.And the news about the Fengshen organization, which was originally heard as a "story" by people, has all become things that people gather to talk about.

Denisa is a woman, and a beautiful solo woman at that.

When she appeared in this tavern, she revealed her understanding of the Fengshen organization in just a few words, so the people in the tavern surrounded her wanting to hear more, and those who did not come around would also pay attention. Put your strength on her side.

When Denisa said that the Fengshen organization did exist, no one in the tavern was in a good mood.

If it does exist, it means that most of the rumors about those things that happened in the past are true. If true...

No one dared to think about those things behind, and no one was willing to think about it.

In the dead and silent tavern, a red-faced person suddenly slapped the table, shaking the beer glasses on the table with great force.

"Lie!" The big man's eyes were red, and he looked at Denisa like an enemy. "We rarely have monsters here in Philo City! They didn't before, how can they be now?! Who are you?" The woman? We have never seen you before! Are you a demon who approved the human skin to deceive us?!"

The big man's words are full of extreme hatred, but what he said is not completely unreasonable-at least it sounds like this to the ears of other ordinary people.

So everyone cast suspicious eyes on Denisa, wanting to hear what she would say.

But Denisa still had that gentle smile on her face, and the look in her eyes wasn't so frightened or concerned. She just put away the stone in her hand and said with a smile, "You can just pretend that I told a story."

The big man was irritated by Denisa's attitude.

He is usually not such an easy-going person, although his temper can't be said to be very good.

But today's news is too scary for ordinary people. Many people's emotions are not stable at this time. This big man who is usually not good-tempered can't control his emotions and wants to find someone to vent his emotions. Of course.

So the big man kicked away the stool at his feet and strode quickly towards Denisa.

He stretched out his huge hand to grab Denisa, but Denisa just leaned back slightly and avoided his hand, the smile in her green eyes remained unchanged, as if he was just an ordinary passers-by.

Just when the big man raised his hand to lift the table in front of Denisa, the sound of orderly and heavy footsteps appeared outside the tavern.

These footsteps were extremely regular thumping sounds, which shook the ground, and the people in the tavern immediately knew that it was the army of Philo City.Such a sound can only be made when the soldiers are acting in unison.

But why did those soldiers appear here?

The dizzy people in the tavern turned their heads to look at the door of the tavern, and the owner of the tavern also showed a panicked look on his face.

He hurriedly got up and stumbled towards the door. Before his hand touched the door, the door opened by itself.

A middle-aged man dressed in a housekeeper's clothes stood outside, and he took off the hat on his head with one hand. Behind him were soldiers standing on both sides.

After seeing the middle-aged man, the tavern owner's legs suddenly became weak, and he stammered: "...the housekeeper...the city supervisor...my lord..." Such a "big man" as the city supervisor is not Someone like him who can be reached by a small tavern owner.In many cases, many words and deeds of the city manager also represent the attitude of the city owner.

"Please address me as the butler of the great and respected Baron Philop, or Mr. Merck." He slightly raised his chin and said this to the tavern owner, then raised his hand and waved lightly at the tavern owner .

The tavern owner was stunned for a while before he realized that he was asked to stand aside.

The tavern owner who didn't dare to disobey these "big shots" hurriedly stepped back to the side, but there was no way to hide the anxiety in his eyes.This look made the corners of Baron Philop's butler's lips curved into an inconspicuous sneer, and then, under the guard of the soldiers behind him, Baron Philop's butler walked into the tavern.

He scanned everyone present, and his eyes finally stopped on Denisa.

After looking back and forth at Denisa three times, Baron Philop's butler came to Denisa's side with regular steps, and glanced at the big man standing there stupidly who originally wanted to vent his anger on Denisa.

The soldiers following the butler immediately stepped forward and dragged the big man away. The butler smiled and nodded in satisfaction, then turned to look at Denisa, and asked in a very respectful manner: "Excuse me, are you Ms. Denisa?" ?"

"It's me." Denisa nodded slightly.

Denisa who was sitting in the tavern was already conspicuous enough, but now with the butler as a foil, she looks like a noble Extraordinary, and the gentle smile on her face looks different at this time.

A monster...it is impossible to have such a smile and temperament...

Many people have such thoughts in their minds.

The steward and Denisa looked at each other for a long while, their eyebrows could not help but move, and finally suppressed the strange sense of fear in his heart, he lowered his head and bowed slightly in his usual way, "Please come with me. "

In this way, Denisa followed the city manager and left, leaving behind everyone in the tavern with blank faces looking at the departing army and the carriage parked outside the tavern at some point, not knowing what happened.

Denisa didn't stay in Philo City for a long time, and she left before dark.

After she came here, the seemingly lifeless Santo Filo became alive again—at least he seemed alive again.

When Lord Filo received the letter from the Fengshen organization, he became lifeless.Although he wasn't dead yet, he looked no different from a dead man.

All the doctors who came to see Lord Philo kept shaking their heads.

Lord Philo was not seriously ill, he was just frightened, and his whole body sank emotionally, which no one could help him.Unless he can untie his knot, Lord Philo will naturally recover.

However, it is useless for the doctors to say this.

But here comes Denisa.

When Denisa left, the civilians in Philo City did not see Denisa leaving, but many people saw their city lord standing on a tall building and waving his arms in all directions. Look excited.

Lord Philo likes to enjoy life, and the castle he lives in is naturally the tallest and most beautiful one in the whole city.Many times, Lord Filo likes to stand on his tall building overlooking his city, and when he is looking at everything in the city, the civilians in the city can see him standing there as long as they raise their heads.

……

Denisa walked very fast.

After she left the city of Philo, she was like a light and swift bird shuttling through the forest.

The extremely long distance didn't take much time for her.

If she wants to go back to her "home", even the swift Denisa will have to walk for a long time, but she doesn't need to go back now, she just wants to walk to a place not too far from Philo City .

Before the sky completely darkened, Denisa finally stopped.

The surrounding woods are very quiet, the kind of silence at night.

In the silent night, you can still hear the sound of insects in the forest.

At night, there are always many small animals and bugs that do not appear during the day, and then make their own unique sounds.

Denisa's two feet landed on the ground, and the soft grass under the weight of her body made a very slight sound.Denisa walked forward for a while, and saw the slightly lit fire, and could still hear the sound of water tumbling in the pot.The ignited firewood crackled and burst into a small spark from time to time, accompanied by the sound of the water in the pot being boiled and rolling, and there was also a faint fragrance.

That's the taste of food.

Denisa's green eyes were tinged with a soft light, which was completely different from the way she smiled at others during the day.

It's not the kind of gentleness that doesn't involve too many personal emotions, just like the statue of the Virgin Mary in the church, but an extremely soft, heartfelt gentleness.

Denisa walked a little faster, and when she got closer, she saw a pile of firewood and a pot hanging from it.

The water in the pot was boiling and rolling, and there were many white and tender things cooked in it.

A woman with long gray hair but an extremely young face, with a pair of peaceful eyes, making it impossible to tell how old she is, is sitting aside, raising one hand, revealing a slender wrist, holding a wooden spoon in the Stir slowly and evenly in the pot.With her movements, the smell of the food became stronger and stronger.

Such a taste...

Exactly what Denisa was familiar with.

"Lord Sharo." Denisa couldn't help lowering her voice, and knelt down beside Sharo.Her eyes looked at the long gray hair hanging on Sha Luo's back, and she couldn't help but raised her hand to pull up the long hair that fell to the ground, and looked at the clothes Sha Luo was wearing, and couldn't help but slightly Some complained: "Master Shaluo, you wear so little."

Now Shaluo, who looks like a young girl, slowly turned her head to look at Denisa, and then slowly burst into a gentle smile, "You are back." She said, "I finished cooking the food, you are Eat better."

"Master Sharo." Denisa's face was very serious, "Your health has not been very good, don't always do things that cause people to worry."

Denisa's face was so serious, Sharo couldn't help laughing when she saw it.

She raised her hand and touched Denisa's head as if she were touching a child.Obviously the faces of the two of them looked similar, but Sharo's behavior didn't feel any disobedience, and Denisa didn't think there was anything wrong.

"Don't worry, you know that my health won't get worse because of Night Breeze."

Because of Sharo's peaceful and tolerant eyes, Denisa was worried but couldn't say anything.

She did know that Sha Luo's poor health had nothing to do with Night Breeze.

Any person who keeps drawing out the spiritual power in his body to maintain the operation of spiritual power in other objects will not get much better.

Because he doesn't have enough spiritual power to maintain his health, how can he look healthy?

"You've been outside all day, let's have something to eat first." Sharo took out a wooden bowl and handed it to Denisa, then smiled gently at the side, looking at her.And Yimulian, who couldn't be seen by others, sat beside Shaluo, stared at her with extremely calm eyes, and turned his gaze to the horizon after a long time.

Humans are really strange beings.

Can make him hate, puzzle him, move him...

And the existence of Shaluo poured all the five flavors together, making it difficult for him to distinguish them.

In ten years, many things can indeed happen, and these things are so many that even Yimulian sometimes falls into deep thought.

Shaluo has changed a lot in the past ten years... In fact, nothing has changed.

Denisa eats very fast.

Because she was worried about Shaluo's physical condition, after finishing her dinner quickly, Denisa tried her best to push Sharo back to the wooden house not far away.This wooden house was built by Denisa herself. Although it looks a bit crude, as long as wind charms are pasted in the room, it will be very comfortable to live in.

Sharo told Denisa many times that it had nothing to do with it, but Denisa, who was generally very obedient, was still very persistent in some places, especially when these things were related to Sharo's body.

Denisa's movements were very gentle and careful, and she didn't exit the room until Sharo gave her a helpless look and lay down.

"Don't worry." Denisa said to Sharo, "Everything is going well. If there is anything, we will talk about it after dawn."

Leaving Sharo's wooden house, Denisa sighed slightly after closing the door.

Sharo is a very special existence to Denisa.

The first time I met Sha Luo was ten years ago.

Denisa was a six-year-old girl at that time.

Just like many tragic children on this continent, something happened to Denisa in the year she met Sharo that could affect her entire life.

The small village where she lived was slaughtered by a demon.

She was hidden in the room by her parents, and through the crack of the door, she saw that everything outside was destroyed, those familiar faces showed pain, and the tragic howls came to an abrupt end under the sharp knife of the demon.

Blood splattered, severed limbs were mixed together, and the hidden things were dragged out and eaten by demons.

Her parents died in front of her, and the monster found her hidden in the room.

Being found is a matter of course, after all, such a thing as demolishing the house is too simple for the demon.The flying roof landed not far away, and Denisa who was hiding in the room was completely exposed, and the demon stood not far from her, and said to her in a maliciously teasing tone: " Look~ there's a little girl hiding here?"

Denisa remembered the split tentacles tearing at her parents as the goblin said this.

then……

Denisa didn't know why she had such courage at that time.

Instead of waiting to die there, she jumped up, not even taking her own life, just wanting to kill that nasty and ugly monster.

What happened after that was like a dream to Denisa.

She didn't die, she was saved.

But the demon was cut into pieces by the wind.

Gentle winds, fierce winds, biting winds, Denisa had seen them all, but she had never seen a wind like this.The violent wind, like a sharp blade, rolled over the monster's body, and then became extremely gentle in the next moment, blowing past her side so lightly, as if the burst just before was her illusion.

Denisa met Sharo for the first time at that time.

Sharo is completely different from now.

At that time, Sha Luo looked extremely old, even walking slowly.

Denisa at that time called Sara Grandma.

Grandma Sarah.

She was taken away by Sharo.

After that, Denisa and Sharo also saw a dark guy in a cloak who went to the completely destroyed village, but left soon.

Lord Sharo raised his finger and pointed to the person who left and said: "If you stay there and I don't come, you will be taken away by him, and then you will become a great sword."

"...What is the great sword?"

"Dajian... is a group of poor people."

At that time, Denisa didn't understand the meaning of Sharo's words. She still couldn't accept what happened to her, and closed herself in her inner world for a long time.

Shaluo has always been very kind to her, giving her food and clothing, and teaching her many things.Slowly, she accepted Sha Luo's existence.In this way, a full ten years have passed, and she has learned many things from Sha Luo that ordinary people cannot learn at all, and she has also spent ten years watching Sha Luo change from an "old woman" to the present one. As young as he looks.

How incredible.

Even Denisa, who lived with Sharo since she was a child, knows how different all of Sharo-sama's performance is.Not to mention anything else, just that the fact that Lord Sharo has become younger is revealed, and Denisa can imagine what will happen in the outside world, and what her life with Lord Sharo will look like.

She wants to protect Lord Sharo.

Denisa thought so long ago, and she still does now.

This is not the only peculiarity about Shaluo. In fact, since Denisa has been with Sharo, she has seen too many things that ordinary people would not have seen or could understand. To the point of getting used to it.

She follows Lord Sharo, learns how to deal with demons, and also wants to fulfill Master Sharo's wish.

—Let Master Yimulian regain the power of Su Sheng again.
